Any members of the Kurdish Community available for a very short, friendly interview?

Hello,

I am a senior in the political science department at Sacramento state working on a final project for a class on national communities/identities. The project is a 10-15 minute presentation on the history of the Kurdish community. If possible, I’d love to include the voice of someone actually from that community in the final product. I am not looking to take up more than 10-15 minutes of your time, preferably over zoom (easier to record), as I ask a few questions about your own sense of identity within the context of the community and its history.

If anyone is interested or knows someone who might be, feel free to DM me and we can go from there. Thank you in advance!

>To our Instructure Community,

>We know that for many of our customers, concerns about the potential publication of data related to this incident remain top of mind. We want to acknowledge those concerns directly – we understand how unsettling situations like this can be, and protecting our community is also a top priority for us.

>With that responsibility in mind, we reached an agreement with the unauthorized actor involved in this incident. As part of that agreement, the data was returned to us, we received assurances that it will not be further shared on the dark web or elsewhere, and we received proof that any copies of that data were deleted. Further, we have been informed that no Instructure customers will be extorted as a result of this incident, publicly or otherwise. While there is never complete certainty when dealing with cyber criminals, we believe it was important to take every step within our control to give our customers additional peace of mind, to the extent possible.

>We are sharing this update in the continued interest of transparency and so that our customers know that we have addressed this element of the incident directly. To reiterate, the agreement covered all of our customers, and there is no need for individual customers to attempt to engage with the unauthorized actor.

>We appreciate your patience and trust as we continue to respond to this incident thoughtfully and comprehensively. We remain committed to providing meaningful updates as our work progresses.

>Regards,

>Steve Daly, CEO, Instructure
